D
D
35
to
40
000..
So
what
does
that
tell
you?
They
have
a
tire
tax
base.
They
can
pull
from
so
when
they
went
to
a
single
County
circuit
when
the
state
funding,
because
when
you
go
from
a
multi-counter
circuit
to
a
single
County
Circuit,
you
lose
State
resources
but
see
because
they
have
a
higher
tax
base
than
we
have.
They
were
able
to
supplement
those
resources,
and
you
take
a
case
County
like
Fulton
County.
D
They
have
a
population
of
over
well
over
a
million
now
without
they're
able
to
because
I
have
friends
that
have
practice
with
when
I
was
in
the
DA's
office.
Now
that
they
they
have
returning
senior
assistant
attorneys
that
they
paid
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
prosecute
cases.
That
more
than
the
state
pays
me
as
the
district
attorney,
because
they
have
that
tax
base
to
pull
from
that.
They
can
supplement
those
state
tax
dollars
that
Muskogee
County
can't
do
you
take
accounting
like
Gwinnett
County?
D
They
have
the
population
of
964
000
and
you
look
at
their
tax
base
and
median
income.
Look
at
DeKalb
County,
where
they
have
a
tax
base
where
they
have
a
population
of
757
000
compared
to
our
205
000.
They
have
a
tax
base
to
full
from
that
supplements
those
State
tax
dollars
that
they
were
that
they
supplement
from
you
take
accounting.
D
I
talked
to
the
clerk
of
superior
court.
You
only
have
three
Superior
Court
judges
here
in
this
County
we
have
seven,
they
have
a
lower
case
load,
a
lower
crime
rate,
because
also
they
only
have
a
population
of
85
000..
We
have
population,
205
000,
look
at
that.
So
what?
When
we
go
to
and
see
going
back
to
the
study?
D
So
we
would
basically,
if
we
went
to
a
single
County
Circuit
here
in
Muskogee
County
would
potentially
go
from
Seven
judges
handling.
As
of
last
night,
being
an
executive
assistant
went
over
the
Odyssey
and
Tyler
system
and
we
have
pending
now
7
298
felony
cases
here
in
this
County
split
between
seven
Superior
Court
judges.
That's
over
a
thousand
each.
So
we
go
down
to
a
city
county
circuit.
We
have
potentially
losing
three,
possibly
four
judges,
so
you
go
from
Seven
Superior,
Court
judges
down
to
potentially
three
or
four.
D
So
let's
take
the
higher
number
four.
So
now
we
go
from
7298
cases
between
seven
judges
now
split
down
to
four,
so
you
have
each
judge
handling
almost
2
000
cases
each
now.
This
is
just
criminal
cases.
Now
we
haven't
gone
into
the
divorce
cases
or
the
child
cases
or
Guardian
light-up
cases,
or
to
have
you
on
the
civil
suits,
we're
just
talking
about
criminal
cases
alone.
So,
let's
just
say,
for
example,
we
had
a
jury
truck
which
is
totally
impossible.
D
D
So
what's
this
going
to
lead
to
overpopulation
in
the
jail
now,
just
we
were
overpopulating
the
jail
when
I
took
office
over
sworn
in
on
May
20th.
Now,
with
the
help
of
the
Chief
Blackman
and
Sheriff
Countryman
and
our
staff,
and
and
thankfully
the
the
additional
funds,
discretionary
funds
that
you
all
allow
for
me
to
have
to
to
hire,
three
additional
attorneys
were
were
once
Ada
short
of
being
full
staff.
D
Let's
just
use
that
this
just
the
at
least
number,
then
you
lose
straight
380as
and
start
with
there
so
to
replace
to
keep
the
system
going
now,
the
county
will
have
to
replace
those
State
paid
Adas
with
County
funds,
so
even
attracting
Ada
to
come
down
and
work
you're
talking
about
a
compensation
package
around
or
more
with
with
their
salary,
plus
insurance
benefits
or
whatever
over
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
So
that's
three.
D
D
Eighty
five
IU
just
bought
a
car
for
our
office
didn't
come
out
of
Muscogee
County
funds
came
out
of
asset
forfeiture
funds
that
was
part
of
the
whole
five
six
County
Circuit
to
use
for
transportation,
for
myself,
for
my
Adas
for
victim,
witness
or
whatever
then
cost
the
city
of
dime.
But
you
go
to
a
one
County
circuit
that
expenditure
they
have
to
come
out
of
the
county
debate
because
we
have
to
get
victims
to
court.
We
have
to
get
witnesses
to
court.
D
We
have
to
we,
we
need
equipment,
but
right
now
that
doesn't
the
cost.
The
city
of
dime
also
we're
talking
about
the
library
funds,
though,
that
those
funds
are
pulled
from
all
all
six
six
counties.
So
with
the
library
fund
yeah,
we
would
have
the
the
library,
but
also
we
will
be
losing
some
economic
benefit
from
there.
We
have
it,
but
we,
but
every
penny
counts.
D
So
when
you,
when
you
talk
about
this
issue,
you
think
about
the
fact
that
we
would
lose
that
money,
then
it's
Council
persons
you've
got
to
go
out
to
your
constituency
and
say
hey
when
they
ask
well,
why
is
the
criminal?
Why
is
the
system
backlogged
and
we're
just
talking
about
the
criminal,
but
then
in
deflation
we're
in
right
now
and
people
are
barely
being
able
to
afford
groceries
and
and
get
gas
you
as
Council
persons,
have
to
go
out
to
your
constituents
and
say
you
know
what
open
your
purses
open
your
wallets.
D
We
need
1.5
million
dollars
to
keep
this
criminal
system
going.
Our
deal
is
going
to
be
overrun.
You
got
to
ask
your
constituents
that,
because
that's
what
and
then
they
ask
well
why?
Because
we
gave
away
the
funding
that
the
state
gave
us
so
now
we're
going
to
transfer
that
funding
from
the
state
to
your
pockets.
A
So
so
Mr
Mayor
pro
team
may
I.
Yes,
sir,
go
ahead.
So
a
couple
of
things,
first
of
all,
I
think
Ms
City
attorney
that
there's
a
Judicial
body
or
somebody
who
would
do
a
study
to
determine
single
judicial
circuits
I
think
that's
the
first
point
I
want
to
make.
But
the
second
thing,
obviously
you've
done
a
lot
of
research,
Mrs,
d8
and
I'm
going
to
have
my
people
to
pull
that
video
and
I
just
for
counsel
to
be
at
ease
because
I
think
you've
scared
the
hell
out
of
them.
D
A
Me
finish
so
I
wanted
to
pull
that
I'm
gonna
have
my
team
to
pull
that
video
and
I
want
them
to
verify
that
you
would
lose
and
go
down
to
four
judges.
I
want
them
to
verify
the
DA's
assistant.
Da's
I
want
them
to
do
a
fact
check
just
to
make
sure
council
members
know
both
sides
and
but
it
will
be
a
fact
check.
Yes,
sir,
and
so
I'm
gonna
have
my
team.
Do
that
and
then
I'll
be
happy
to,
because
you
know
you
you've
devastated
me
with
your
passion
and
with
your
information.
Yes,.
A
He
gave
me
on
yesterday
and
I
believe
that's
the
City
attorney.
Has
he
advised
that
that's
how
it's
done,
and
so
but
I
will
they'll
pull
that
video,
yes
and
then
I
will
come
back
to
council,
because
I
I
believe
we
need
to
be
very
factual
in
the
information
that
you
have
and
so
I'll
come
back
to
you
with
it.
D
Thank
you
once
again,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
be
here
and
also
I.
If
I
can
just
take
this
opportunity
to
continually.
Thank
you
when
I
first
came
into
office,
like
I,
said
for
those
discretionary
funds
and
the
funds
that
you
provided
me
and
and
thanks
to
the
mayor,
who's
not
present,
but
the
city
manager
and
and
our
Council,
because
we've
been
able
to
do
a
heck
of
a
lot
of
work
with
the
resources
that
you
provided
to
us
and
I
wish.
D
C
D
Been
we've
even
indicted,
I
believe
the
386
cases
through
the
grand
jury.
That's
just
indictments.
Okay,
all
right
I,
don't
have
the
numbers
that
we've
cleared,
but
through
the
rapid
resolution
program
that
that
we
have
there's
several
hundred
more
cases
that
we've
actually
been
able
to
close,
but
we,
but
through
the
resources
and
hiring
Adas,
we've
been
able
to
indict
and
get
those
386
cases
within
the
last
few
months
on
on
the
trial,
docket.
C
D
A
A
F
Fact
check
it,
one
of
my
questions
involved.
Didn't
the
study
say
that
our
circuit
was
too
large
based
on
that
that
actual
study
that
was
conducted
in
2019
and
also
it
had
recommended
that
we
pull
both
Talbot
and
Harris
County
out
initially.
So
it
was
a
lot
of
recommendations
that
was
made
based
on
that
study.
That.
C
A
F
Yeah,
so
that's
we
do
have
a
lot
but
I'm
I'm,
calling
Wayne
and
that
and
I
know
he
had
wanted
to
have
a
meeting
to
actually
address
some
of
the
concerns.
And
then
we
can
have
facts
exactly
what
you're
talking
about
city
manager,
yeah,
because
I
think
the
facts
and
the
numbers
and
seeing
it
in
black
and
white
versus.
A
C
A
E
Many
jurors
do
not,
and
if
they
have
their
own
judge,
who
is
not
based,
which
we
have
great
judges
of
Muskogee
and
some
come
from
Harris,
who
are
very
fair-minded,
but
I've
been
in
Trials
before
where
people
should
have
clearly
been
struck
for
bias
and
prejudice
against
plaintiff
and
I
have
been
home
cooked
before
home.
Cooking
is
real.
The
some
of
the
rural
counties
surrounding
this
County
are
not
as
Metropolitan
as
Columbus.
Those
juries
can
be
dangerous
for
somebody.
E
If
they're
a
minority
and
I
represent
primarily
minorities
and
I
have
to
look
out
for
their
rights.
It
is
important
to
me
that
people
get
Justice,
that
people
get
a
Justin,
Fair
jury
and
if
a
circuit
gets
comprised
of
only
a
rural
judge
or
a
small
rural
circuit,
there's
a
very
real
opportunity.
I
could
get
home
cooked
just
because
my
person's
not
from
that
County
and
I,
just
want
to
warn
you
of
that,
because
that's
part
of
the
beauty
of
having
a
multi-county
circuit.
E
It
gives
you
a
rotation
of
Judges,
there's
less
less
chance
of
prejudice.
You
know
in
favor
of
one
lawyer
or
another,
because
there's
several
judges
to
choose
from
and
I
just
want
to
warm
you
up.
Warn
you
about
home
cooking,
because
it's
real
and
it
has
hurt
my
clients
who
had
just
cases
before
and
I
did
not
like
it,
and
it
wasn't
fair
if
the
judge
had
been
impartial.
